as discussed in this list and on Linuxtag 2008 in Berlin there is a need to clean up the DE:-Sites inside the OOoWiki (before changing to another URL) and may be there are sites in other languages that are outdated too. I would ask if this sites should marked with a special category (which?). Then it would be posible to delete this sites by a special wikibot.

I am going to use the PyWikipediabot that is used on the Wikipedia MediaWiki. I have tested it a bit in the past few days, and it works quite well for these kinds of tasks. See: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Wiki_maintenance/PyWikipedia_Bot
for more information.

A category tag will work, or a simple text file (on my computer) with a list of the affected pages will also do the job. The advantage of the text file is that someone does not need to go in an edit each page and add a special category tag.

At last count there were (not including Talk, Discussion and redirects):
  - 19 pages starting with De:
  - 84 pages starting with DE:
  - 23 pages starting with PL:
I have (visually) scanned the pages in the Wiki, and this seems to be all that is affected. This is a small number of pages, and the change is not hard to manage - even if it has to be done manually.
